Ultra Unlock: Water Festival
Ultra Unlock: Water Festival
A Water-type-themed Ultra Unlock event. Arrokuda, Barraskewda, and Cramorant make their Pokémon GO debut (Cramorant changes form in battle), and Shiny Ducklett and Dewpider appear more often. Catch XP and Stardust bonuses escalate as the event goes on (XP 2×→3×→4×, Stardust 3×→4×→5×).

Event bonuses
Tips
The Stardust bonus peaks at 5× in the final window (Aug 22–24). Save Pokémon power-ups and Stardust farming for this stretch, and stack a Star Piece for up to 10×.
Cramorant shows up as an Egg, GO Pass, and GO Battle League reward (Rank 16+, more often on the Premium track). It changes form mid-battle, so grab one if you play GO Battle League.
Arrokuda can be attracted with Rainy Lure Modules — even more efficient on days with the rainy weather boost (Water/Electric/Bug).
Shiny odds for Ducklett and Dewpider are boosted during the event. If you're also after Shiny Swanna and Araquanid, stockpile candy to evolve during this window.
Feebas (→Milotic) and Clamperl are rare spawns. Don't skip them in the wild if you're hunting Shiny Feebas or Clamperl.
